Invasive species may look harmless, but they can cause real damage to our native habitats. One such plant is the Zanzibar Yam (Dioscorea sansibarensis) — a fast-growing vine that strangles native plants and disrupts forest ecosystems.

– Learn how invasive species affect our forests
– Take part in meaningful action to protect native plants
– Play a role in conserving Singapore’s natural heritage
This activity is perfect for nature lovers, families, and anyone who wants to make a difference. Every vine you help remove is a step toward restoring balance in our forests. 🌱

[Online Talk] The Songbird Trade in Southeast Asia
2026-09-21 20:00 - 21:00 | Online (Zoom)
Open to the Public
Did you know that Singapore’s singing star, the Straw-headed Bulbul, has been extirpated from or is now extremely rare in most of its native range because of the illegal and unsustainable bird trade? The illegal and unsustainable trade in Asian songbirds affects hundreds of species across multiple countries. Join us for an overview of the issues, highlighting some of the target species at risk and research documenting the scale and impacts of the trade. We will also cover some of the initiatives in recent years to improve international and domestic legal protection for priority species, strengthen the evidence base for conservation action, safeguard unique taxa on the brink of extinction, and engage with songbird buyers and keepers to reduce demand.
Serene Chng is a Programme Manager at TRAFFIC International – Southeast Asia, managing and implementing projects across the region collecting evidence of wildlife trade to guide interventions and influence stakeholders since 2013. She has authored a range of technical reports and scientific papers uncovering the scale and depth of the illegal and unsustainable trade in multiple taxa. Serene is also a Co-coordinator of the IUCN SSC Asian Songbird Trade Specialist Group.
